Lyrics
The night is like a lovely tune
The night is compared to a beautiful melody.
Beware my foolish heart
A warning to be cautious, addressing the heart as potentially imprudent.
How wise the ever constant moon
Praising the wisdom of the ever-present moon.
Take care my foolish heart
A repeated cautionary phrase, advising to be mindful of one's heart.
There's a line between love and fascination
Highlighting the fine line between love and fascination.
That's hard to see on an evening such as this
Expressing difficulty in distinguishing between love and fascination, especially on such an evening.
For they both give the very same sensation
Stating that both love and fascination evoke similar feelings.
When you're lost in the magic of a kiss
Describing the enchantment of a kiss and its magical nature.
Her lips are much too close to mine
Expressing physical proximity with a cautionary tone.
Beware my foolish heart
Reiterating the warning to the heart about potential foolishness.
But should her eager lips meet mine
If the lips meet, suggesting the potential ignition of passion.
Then let the fire start
If a kiss happens, then the speaker welcomes the passion.
For this time it isn't fascination
Clarifying that the emotion is not mere fascination but genuine love.
Nor a dream that will fade and fall apart
Rejecting the idea of it being a fleeting dream; emphasizing the reality of the emotion.
It's love, this time it's love
Affirming that it is indeed love this time.
My foolish heart, whoa
Addressing the heart as foolish, acknowledging the risk.
For this time it isn't fascination
Repeating the distinction between love and fascination.
Nor a dream that will fade and fall apart
Rejecting the idea of it being a transient dream; confirming it as enduring love.
Truly, it's love, this time it's love
Affirming once again that it is genuine love this time.
My foolish heart
A concluding acknowledgment of the heart's potential folly despite genuine love.
